The 2026 gold market: Gold's role in a multi-polar reserve system
2026 finds gold continuing as a structural reserve asset. Central banks remain net buyers. Gold's share of total global reserves has crossed 18 percent — the highest since the 1990s. The post-2022 monetary order, with gold playing a larger role alongside multiple reserve currencies, appears to be consolidating rather than reversing.

The Philippines gold market
Philippines retail gold prices are quoted in the local currency per gram for 24K and 22K purities, and per troy ounce for investment-grade bullion. Local rates usually sit above the international XAU/USD spot price after import duties, sales taxes, and jewellery making charges are applied. Use this archive as the international reference price; final retail rates depend on your dealer and the date's exchange rate.

How Philippines gold prices are calculated on this page
Source. The international XAU/USD spot price comes from gold-api.com's historical archive (London PM-fix benchmark). The PHP/USD exchange rate comes from exchangerate-api.com's 2026 year-end snapshot.
Conversion. Every PHP figure on this page is computed as XAU/USD price × PHP/USD rate. We use the year-end exchange rate consistently across all March 2026 prices on this page.
Per-unit math. Per-gram = per-ounce ÷ 31.1035. Per-tola = per-gram × 11.664. Per-10g = per-gram × 10. Per-kilo = per-gram × 1000. Karat values multiply per-gram by the purity ratio (24K = 0.999, 22K = 0.916, 21K = 0.875, 18K = 0.750, 14K = 0.585, 10K = 0.417).
What this page does NOT include. Local sales tax / VAT, customs duty on imports, dealer making charges, jewellery design premiums, or coin numismatic premiums. To go from this pure-metal value to a final retail rate in Philippines, add the country-specific levies described in the “Philippinesgold market” section above.
FAQ — Philippines gold price in March 2026
What was the gold price in Philippines in March 2026?
Historical PHP gold price archive for Philippines in March 2026.
What was the 24K gold rate per tola in Philippines in March 2026?
Tola-based gold rate for Philippines in March 2026 requires both XAU/USD and PHP/USD data which is unavailable for this period.
What was the 24K gold rate per gram in Philippines in March 2026?
Retail rate calculation requires international XAU/USD spot and PHP/USD FX, both of which are missing for this period.
How was the local currency price calculated?
PHP prices on this page are computed from the verified international XAU/USD spot price for March 2026 (sourced from gold-api.com), multiplied by the 2026-end PHP/USD exchange rate from exchangerate-api.com. We use year-end rates as a single reference point for the entire month — for most stable currencies the within-year FX drift is small, but during currency crises (PKR 2022–23, TRY 2022, ARS 2024 etc.) the actual mid-month rate may differ.
Why does the retail price in shops differ from this number?
The ₱ figures here represent the international gold spot price converted to PHP at the 2026-end exchange rate. Philippines's retail jewellers add (1) import duties and sales tax (varies by SKU and karat), (2) dealer making charges (typically 3–12% of metal value), and (3) a small premium for purity certification on bars. Always verify the exact day's retail rate with a reputable local dealer before transacting.
